Default Exactly how to make sure you don't have an "accident"!

Over the last few years I have read of people claiming to have accidentally created hybrids and/or mixed local frogs.
I really fail to see how this can happen. So, I'll put out the info as to how to not let these accidents happen.
If you have a frog from one local , and another frog from a known different local, simply do not put them together!
I know, a mind blowing thought process!
It is impossible for two frogs to mate if they are not together. Another crazy statement from Rich. I know , I know.

It is not an accident when know frogs of different locals are knowingly placed together.
So , for those who can't seem to grasp the concept , and those who seem to have a lot of "accidents", let me spell it out once again.


Using one viv as a 'holding' station, or quarantineing frogs from different locals and possibly different vendors or froggers is a recipe for diaster. The possibility of communal disease is escalated, and guess what...you just may get a little 'surprise' a couple months down the line.

I really fail to see how purposely placing two frogs from different locals in one tank is and "accident" , but for those who can't figure out how their little 'accidents' ended up hoppin' around, you may wish to keep two different locals separated at all times.
Mind blowing , crazy, outside the box thinking.

Sorry for the rant, but in this day and age of actually knowing how offspring are produced I find the chances of hybrid accidents slim or none.

Rant over.


Rich

PS,

FOR THOSE WHO CONSIDER THIS POST A BIT TO HARSH, I ASSURE YOU , THE HARSHNESS WAS PURELY ACCIDENTAL.
